Turn on your notebook.
I cannot operate the optical drive in the docking station, when the docking 
station is connected to the notebook and the notebook is connected to another 
computer via an i.LINK connection.
Set the i.LINK network switch at the bottom of the docking station to the marked 
 side. See “If your notebook is connected to the optional docking station” in 
the online user guide for more information.
An error message appears while disconnecting the docking station, even after 
following the correct procedure for disconnecting the docking station.
Close the software in use, disconnect other devices being used, then try to 
disconnect the docking station from the notebook.
I cannot remove the disc.
You cannot remove the disc when the notebook is in power saving mode. Return 
to normal mode, then press the Eject button.
The disc tray does not eject even after I press the Eject button.
Open the tray by inserting a thin, straight object (such as a paper clip) in the 
manual eject hole.
Troubleshooting the LCD Screen
My LCD screen is blank.
Verify that the notebook is plugged into a power source and that it is turned 
on. 
Verify that the power indicator on the notebook is on.
Verify that the battery pack(s) is inserted properly and is charged.
Do not set the i.LINK network switch when the notebook is on. This causes the 
notebook to malfunction.
Set the i.LINK network switch after removing all cables connected to the docking 
station.
